South Jersey’s Longest Running Airport Shuttle Service

August 29, 2018

Rapid Rover is South Jersey’s longest running airport shuttle service for a reason: our service to nearby airports is consistently fast, affordable and available 24/7 to residents throughout Philadelphia’s suburbs and South Jersey. We’ve been providing residents in the area with ride services for over 50 years, and our #1 goal is always delighting our customers.

Rapid Rover Shuttle Service began in 1972, when Joseph McFadden’s Metro Cab Company created the division to serve the area’s need for dependable airport shuttles. Metro Cab had just recently purchased a fleet of ten passenger vans to transport special education students, and they saw that the vans were perfect vehicles for shuttling residents to and from the large airport in Philadelphia.

The Rapid Rover service and its affordable rides became popular very quickly, and soon Metro Cab was able to offer its shuttle services throughout South Jersey. Soon Rapid Rover had its own offices in Pennsauken and purchased its own former Sunoco station to fuel the vehicles and keep them serviced. To this day, we prevent breakdowns and stranded drivers through our own source, allowing us to control costs and keep our drivers and passengers safe.

In recent years, Metro Cab has been phased out to move resources to Rapid Rover and provide even more service to South Jersey customers. We now offer shuttle service to Amtrak’s 30th Street Station and the Atlantic City International Airport, and we also rent shuttle services for parties and other gatherings. We also now offer direct service to customers, so they can enjoy an express ride to the airport with no stops.

Rapid Rover remains dedicated to improving our service, and to giving our customers safe and affordable shuttle service to major travel hubs from South Jersey. We hope you’ll contact us today for your transportation needs, and experience for yourself what makes us South Jersey’s longest running airport shuttle service.
